I have more than 20 years of experience and I am passionate about my career. My mission with patients is to accompany them in their therapeutic process and help their emotional creativity; so that they learn to be aware that they have at their disposal the internal resources and tools to overcome the difficulties that personal, family, or work life can generate for them. The goal is that with all this they can become empowered. I continue the commitment I feel to myself and to the people I accompany to improve a little more each day.
